[Verse]
I said-a hey Mr. Writer, won't you help me if you can
I've got myself a-hung up on that first verse again
I was singing 'bout the people and the things they do
I was lost for words, 'til I thought about calling on you, you, you, yeah

[Refrain]
Doo-oo
Doo-oo-oo-woo
Doo-oo
Doo-oo-oo-woo-oo-oo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

[Verse]
I remember the song as if it were my own
You said everyday people need a simple song
To sing if they want to, and dance if they can
Whatever let them be themselves again
And I dug it then, whoa-oh-oh!
[Refrain]
Doo-oo
Doo-oo-oo-woo
Doo-oo
Doo-oo-oo-woo-oo-oo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo
Doo doo doo, doo doo doo

I said-a rap on Mr. Writer, I got my pеncil in my hand
I promise you I'll do the very bеst I can, I want you to
Tell me 'bout my sisters and my brothers too, a-but
First of all, let me thank the Lord, for running into
You-you-you-you-you
